capt_oats Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Apparently Connor Ripley is being loaned out again this season by Middlesbrough! Not surprisingly seeing as they've just signed Valdes. I'd have thought they'd want Ripley going to an English Championship club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del_Superwell Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Yeah that's what I was thinking as well, probably English Championship, possibly League 1 at a push for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desp Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 New home top is nice, although if I was being picky I'd prefer claret shorts. The 3rd top is a minter. The club are fairly milking the fact we've won nothing for 25 years, eh? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del_Superwell Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) Just found out the replica strips will be sold without the sponsors on them, only the first team kits will have the sponsors.

Aye, like, it's a great thing to commemorate, but how long do we just keep having an anniversary cause we're shite in cups? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Only good thing about the third top is that it hopefully means our away top will be claret again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's such a weird thing to put on a shirt. Had they done a 130th Anniversary top as a 3rd kit then yeah, I'd have seen the point in that and could have given a bit of license to do something different but commemorating the last time we won the cup is just odd, fine release a DVD, have events and the like but to build a kit around it? Whit? It's a shame since it'd be a really nice top without the watermarking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indyboy Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Think the new home top is a belter. Even better with no sponsor 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gianfranco Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I have too say I'm not a fan of either strip with or without the sponsor but I don't buy them anyway so not too fussed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Aldo Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Not that we'd be signing him anyway but seen some rumours on Twitter that Ripley is going to Oldham. Suppose it would make sense if Robinson ended up there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 In a wee update on the strip the club have indicated that they'll now be making it available with/without the sponsors logo depending on preference (a few folk had been pointing out that their kids might want the replica of what the players were wearing on the park.)Fair play to the club and Motorpoint for sorting that out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I'd almost always take a top without sponsorship on it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MP_MFC Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Only good thing about the third top is that it hopefully means our away top will be claret again. Given the marketing material I reckon some variation of blue will be our away kit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJC Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I like the home top, especially with the claret hoop but just what is it the club have against claret shorts? They are a must for a Motherwell home kit IMO and it takes the shine off any top when the shorts are Amber or even worse, white. As for the away strip and the 1991 Cup winning team references? That is just embarrassing and indicative of our small time outlook as a club. Winning the cup in 91 was superb for the club and should never be forgotten but we can't dine out on it forever and to use one of our kits, 25 years later as a nod to the last time we actually achieved tangible success in the game is just pathetic and embarrassing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I can think is that they've opted to change it up as they've had claret shorts the past 2 seasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
